 Cambrian Cruisers Narrowboat Hire

Narrowboat Hire on the Mon & Brec Canal
Cambrian Cruisers was established in 1988 by Ruth and Peter Griffiths. I am Jonathan their younger son and from the very beginning, at the age of twelve I was an eager helper, only too keen to show off my narrowboat handling skills, sometimes with embarrassing consequences!! Twenty years on I have now taken over the narrowboat hire business and run it with my wife Camilla. Being involved from the beginning I have learned how important it is to provide the committed and professional service our guests deserve.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our hire narrowboats which are clean, modern, reliable and well equipped.

We look forward to welcoming you to this magnificent part of Britain to experience this unique and unforgettable narrowboat hire holiday along the Mon and Brec Canal.

NATIONAL QUALITY ASSURANCE SCHEME
The Visit Britain narrowboat hire grading scheme is your assurance of hiring a good quality narrowboat for your holiday. We have been members of this scheme for over 9 years and their annual inspection of our fleet means that we cannot become complacent about our standards. All our narrowboat hire boats have been awarded the upper range of 4 to 5 stars (out of a maximum of 5.)
Under the scheme a 4 star narrowboat hire boat is described as 'very good to excellent overall quality. Higher comfort levels and evident attention to detail throughout'.
Under the scheme a 5 star narrow boat hire is described as ‘Excellent to exceptional overall quality. Highest levels of decor, fixtures and fittings. Highest standards of management efficiency and guest care’.

Our commitment to independent inspection means that you can book your narrowboat hire holiday with complete confidence. We are happy for you to visit our marina to see our narrowboats, or view our virtual tours showing the quality of our narrowboats and their interiors.

 

QUALITY ASSURED NARROWBOAT HANDOVERS AND INSTRUCTION
Our handover procedures and the instruction we give to hirers have been checked and accredited by the British Marine Federation. You can be sure that you will get good information and an effective briefing before you take out one of our hire narrowboats.

(Mind speedhumps) For hirers coming by public transport the nearest railway station is at Abergavenny and a bus from there, passes our marina every two hours.

Loading your narrowboat hire boat from your car is easy at our purpose built moorings. We provide secure and secluded car parking to give you peace of mind about your vehicle whilst you enjoy your narrowboat hire holiday.

From our base at the northern end of the Mon & Brec canal, you can easily make a waterway visit to Brecon and also be able to enjoy most of the interesting features of the Mon & Brec canal i.e. aqueducts, lift bridges, tunnel, locks, and fantastic views of the Brecon Beacons.
